It would definitely depend on where this statue was placed. At the side of a road it could be a problem, in a pedestrian area it would be a talking point which presumably would achieve what it's creator wanted. A modern day 'David' in underpants. :D

The rest of the exhibits are in the University gallery.Why they put this exhibit out there is a publicity stunt for the exhibition.However it's too realistic and I can see it being vandalised.

$10million for that. :confused:

That's more shocking than the kid climbing all over it by far.

And yet some sculptures are meant to be touched.

Sadly Barbara Hepworths are very tactile and are clearly meant to be touched but galleries and museums won't let us touch them.

A cleaner has mistakenly thrown away contemporary artworks meant to be part of an exhibition in southern Italy.
Works made out of newspaper and cardboard, and cookie pieces scattered across the floor as part of Sala Murat's display were thrown out.
:rofl:

Yes it's the exhibition where the sleepwalking statue was placed outside in the snow.
